When I add a tag to an article in K2 I am not adding the hashtag to them, yet when the article is displayed in the front end the system is adding the #. How do I turn this feature off?

Hi Chad,

It is added using CSS, look into your k2.css, and find this rule definition:
You can override this rule in your custom.css file, if your template has this feature.

Mohamed is right, as always :)

You can also move the components/com_k2/css/k2.css file into your template's /css folder and remove this CSS rule.

I was banging my head into the wall on this trying to figure out why it wasn't working after I copied the css file, moved the copy to /templates/rt_dominion/css/k2.css and removed that line from the file.

Finally I realized that the tag that had been referenced in the above replies is not the one that has to be changed in my particular case. There is also one like this that has to be changed:

div.catItemTagsBlock ul.catItemTags li a:before {content:"#";}

If you want to remove all of the # tags from your K2 tags you need to remove both lines.
